Chapter 13

Hi everyone! Thank you for your last comments. Here is your chapter. Please leave a review. (sorry for my mistakes).

"Hey, Kendra how is she?" Shay asked before Matt had a chance. Boden e Severide was with them in the waiting room. Chief asked to the rest of firehouse 51 to stay at barbecue. He would give them any update.

"She is good... there is another doctor talking to her in this moment..." everyone left a sigh of relieve, mainly Casey, because he was felling guilty. "... she had a little concussion, we already did a CT and nothing is wrong. It's a good thing she got here conscious after the first care on the ambo."

"Okay, thank you, God..." Shay said looking directly to Casey. Was she accusing him of something? Casey thought.

"Is she awake now?" Casey asked feeling unsure.

"Yes, she will stay a few hours, we need to observe her. She got here dehydrated and she was dizzy, but it is common in her state..."

"How so?" this time Chief Boden spoke, however all were intrigued by her last words.

"She is on the first trimester of pregnancy, it's common-" Casey didn't let her finish.

"What? What are you saying? Gabby is pregnant?" Boden, Severide and Shay were in shock like him.

"Yes, she is..." and she looking at them and realized that maybe they didn't know that. Casey had tears in his eyes. He put not only Gabby's life in danger but their baby too.

"I'm sorry,... you didn't know that?" she asked them. They nodded negatively. And Casey walked to the closest wall and hit two times his head slightly on it. He was upset with himself. Severide observed attentively his friend and got next to him.

"They will be fine, Matt... Believe me..." he whispered to his friend.

"Kendra, the baby is okay?" Shay was holding her breath.

"We are waiting a obstetric to examine her. The car hit Gabby side, for sure, she already had a bruise that, though she is not bleeding, so we are assuming she is not having a miscarriage..."

Casey turned around, "... I am her boyfriend, she knows about the pregnancy?" tears rolled down his face.

"If she didn't know before, the doctor earlier must have said it to her..." she answered him.

"May she has some company during the exam?"

"Yes, of course..."

"Shay, could you be with her? Please?" He asked her with puffy eyes.

"Are you sure about this?" She was not really his fan right now, but she knew he wanted a family by his own a long time.

"Yes, I am... I'm not gonna help that much being that, trust me... She doesn't need more stress right now..."

"Okay..." finally Shay accepted his decision.

"Let's go! I will take you to be with her."

"I call the guys... I will say she is out of risk..." Severide spoke directly to Casey.

"Just no tell them about the baby... not yet..." Casey told him as he was taking a seat.

"Okay..."

Chief Boden took a seat next to Casey. "Hey... I know you are worried... but..." he looked at his lieutenant for a second and put a hand on his shoulder, "...congratulation, you and Gabby will make great parents..."

"Thanks, Chief... I just need to know he... or she is okay..." and Boden squeezed his shoulder. After the call Severide went to the cafeteria to grab some coffee to them, leaving Boden and Casey in the waiting room. They stayed quiet for a few minutes.

"I lied to her..." Casey started.

"What?" Boden looked at him.

"Actually I hid the truth first of her that I was doing a construction job for Hallie, somehow I thought that was better this way... I don't have feelings for Hallie anymore, I just helped her as a friend... And I chose not tell Gabby... I didn't want her feeling insecure..."

"I see..."

"Then... this week Hallie called while I was with Gabby and I lied to her saying that I didn't know why Hallie was calling me..."

"Matt..."

"I need to say this, Chief, please..."

"Alright... going on..."

"And today at barbecue... someone that know me and Hallie told before Gabby what I was doing at Hallie's house... I know he didn't say it intensionally... Anyway... Gabby excused herself and started to run... I called for her and Shay too, but..." and more tears rolled down his face.

"Listen... not blame yourself... it is not gonna make Gabby better... you're gonna lose yourself... your mind..."

"... because of me she can lose our baby..."

"She will not... have some hope... If you are really regretful tell her that and be sure that you will be by her side all the way. She loves you... We all know that..."

Before he could answer, "Casey... Gabby wants to see you..." Shay told him.

Casey opened the door room slightly and he saw her, he gave a her a half smile, but her expression was stoic. "Shay... told me you wanted to see me..."

"Yes..." she responded dryly.

"I know I am not in a position to ask you anything... but I... I thought for one second... do you know..." his eyes once again were watering. She was trying to be strong, she needed it, however one tear betrayed her and rolled down her face and he saw that. "Can I hug you?" he asked her finally. She didn't want to, but against her will, she nodded her head. Then he sat on the edge of the bed close to her and hugged her. Her arms stayed by her sides, he waited for her to embrace him too, a few seconds later and he realized that wasn't going to happen. "I'm sorry..." he murmured. With that she pushed him away.

"I prefer you sit on the chair..." she said to him.

"Okay..." he did what she asked.

"I just was told that I'm pregnant... I am still trying to function about this new reality..." she wasn't looking at him, she chose to looked at the door.

"Me too... but it's great news, right?"

"Yeah... I never thought about being a mommy so earlier, but somethings you can't plan... The doctor said the baby is fine, in a few weeks I must have a appointment..." she was playing with the hem of her gown.

"I believe we can handle anything together... and we have incredible families and friends... this baby will be so much loved..." and she cut him off.

"I want you leave my house, Matt..." she looked at him.

"Gabby..." he said as he stood up. He took a few steps in her direction, but she lifted her hand signaling for him not get close to her.

"I want you to leave today..." she wiped a tear.

"Gabby, we can fix it... I know, I shouldn't have lied to you that I wasn't talking to Hallie... and that I was working on her house..."

"I can't trust you anymore... I can't..."

"Babe, I am saying sorry... Look, I just did that to protect you..." he was desperate.

"What? Now it's my fault that you lied to me?" she asked angry.

"No, I'm not saying that... I now you would get angry if you knew I was helping Hallie and we had fights enough because of her... I want nothing with her, she was just a friend that I was helping, nothing more... Believe me..." he stepped forward.

"I made my decision... I and hope you respect that..."

"We are having a baby, Gabby... I don't want to live away from you and him..."

"I would never stop you have contact with this baby, Casey... I will give you update about everything involving him..."

"I don't want updates... Gabby... I want everything with you and him... I want to see all the things happening..." he was next to her bed.

"I'm sorry... I can't live with you under the same roof right now, Casey..." those were her last words and his heart broke into a million of pieces.

"I understand...", in fact he didn't but he wasn't arguing with her again.

"I want you take with you all your things... The doctor said I have to stay here a few hours, I think you have enough time to grab your stuff..."

"Gabby, you said you couldn't live with me right now. I know you need some time, but I thought I could be back at home in a couple of days..." he said upset.

"I think I need to be clearer with you... I am breaking up with you, Casey... Our relationship last enough for me realize that we don't work together... I saw Hallie at the barbecue, go back to her, she still loves you and maybe you don't realize and loves her too... Do whatever you want... I really don't care..."

He was crying, her words were harsh on him, she knew that. "Seems you made you mind, hun?" and she nodded. When he got out of the room, he saw Boden, Severide and Shay with questioning eyes.

"What happened?" they saw sadness in his eyes.

"Nothing... It's just..." he rubbed his forehead. "They are fine, that's what matters... I have to go... she asked me something and... I see you guys later..." and he walked out. Severide followed his path.

"Casey, are you okay?"

"Are you doing something after here?" Casey asked Severide.

"No, why?"

"I need to grab my things from Gabby's house today, I mean right now... Can you help me with that?"

"Yeah..." Severide answered little confused, "... I can..."

"Good morning!"

"Good morning, Chief!" Mouch spoke.

"Before I give you the informations for today... I need to announce that Gabby was transferred to another firehouse..." Casey was surprised and at the same time angry. Otis lifted his hand. "Don't ask me anything, Otis..." And Casey understood that Boden wasn't going to say anything, not in the room.

"Sorry, Chief..."

"Did you know that?" Severide turned to Matt asking about.

"No, she doesn't pick up my calls... Do you think she will run away with my son? Do you think she could do that?"

"Of course not, I know she is mad at you, but she is not crazy... She never would do that..."

"I hope you are right..." Matt said looking at his phone.

"Connie..." Boden called after saw her bringing the new paramedic. "Thanks, Connie..." He introduced her and continued his talking.

A few hours later

"Hey... I'm looking for Gabriela Dawson... I'm Matthew Casey, lieutenant at 51..."

"Hi, I'm Philip... Gabriela and Tyson are on a call..."

"I get it..." Casey said disappointed.

"Look...", he said pointing out in one direction, "...they just arrived..."

"Thanks..."

Gabby didn't seem happy in seeing him, he could say that. "What are you doing here?"

"Do you have here a room where we can talk privately?" he asked. She huffed, but agreed. Casey saw some of her co-workers and she indicated the room for him.

"Why are you here, Casey?" she folded her arms.

"Maybe because you don't answer my calls and messages?"

"I have a reason for that..."

"Really? It's like that now... you will ignore me?"

"What I said to you, Casey? When I have a new information about the baby, I call you... except that, I won't call you or anything..."

"You want to punish me, okay, I will have to handle that. But don't think I'm walking away of your life. That will not happen, Gabby... One more thing: I want you back at 51, I will ask Chief to be transferred..."

"What are you saying?"

"You heard me... your place is at 51, they are family, they will take care of you... I'll be fine in another firehouse..."

"Forget it... I'm staying here..."

"I am not asking, Gabby... I'm demanding you go back to 51..." he said before left the room.

"Casey..." she yelled, but he didn't listen to her.
